Since I've purchased this unit, I've been impressed by the speed and quality of the print. The colors are great and the black and white is really sharp. Used to have an ink jet to do color and a black and white laser to do the rest, but having one unit to copy, scan, fax and print is really great. Love that it scans both sides of a document with one pass, saves time and insures that the copies are correct. Setting it up for wireless wi-fi printing was simple and works great. A must have for any small/home business.

I like that it is fast. I like all the functions. The touchscreen is becoming easier to navigate. It was nice to be able to scan a huge amount of pages with the ADF and create a single PDF document using a single command. For the most part it does have crisp text. What I don't like is that the black print is not a solid color; it is a form of greyscale dots. So it is hard to say that it is as crisp as my other laser printers. I do not like that I had to call for help to set it up, and ended up with a very long and tense experience. The colors are not vibrant. They are more dull. Hopefully I can figure out how to fix this. I cannot get it to only pull from the manual feed. If I'm too slow to get a page in the feeder, it will pull from the paper tray. I'm not thrilled with how easily it jams and that it pulls the paper in crooked from the manual feed. My expectations are very high because I'm in publishing. So these things may not be as important to someone else.

Where do I start? We are not happy with purchase at all. My company purchased the MFC-9340CDW All-in-One printer on 3/25/14. Upgraded to a laser from an ink jet. Do not like how you have to adjust the density and contrast just to get a lighter copy. I end up wasting more toner and paper trying to get a lighter copy of something. Also do not like that when you place something in the ADF tray it comes up on the screen ADF ready but takes 4-5 seconds for message to go away so you can make your selection to fax/copy/scan.

Then the problems started. On 5/14/14 I called Brother due to the printer was leaving imprints down the left side of the paper. Then orange flakes started coming out on the paper. I opened back door and could see the lack roller had ridges in it and the orange roller was flaking pieces. So Brother replaced the machine with a new one. (know way to really tell if new or refurbished)

On 6/2/14 had to call Brother again with an issue of yellow toner coming out on paper. Took the toner cartridges out and there was yellow toner all over the inside of the machine. They blamed it on the replacement machine not knowing the toners were not full when I put them in the replacement machine and thus it went past its usage on the toners and was trying to expel more ink. This made no sense to me. All I know is, I had ink everywhere and had to clean the entire inside of the new machine. On top of that they said I needed to replace all 3 color toners so the machine would now know they were new toners, otherwise could happen on the other 2 colors.

On 9/29/14 noticed imprints again on left side of paper. So I called Brother again. This time they would send me out a refurbished printer. That is all they could do. What I really wanted was a refund of my purchase. I kept a close watch on the color toners after this machine change out, not wanting a repeat of toner all over the inside of the machine. I had changed the yellow toner 10/2/14, 4 days before the replacement printer was put into service and by 10/28/14 it said it was empty. The blue and red colors had not been changed since 8/28/14. So I found it hard to believe the yellow toner was empty. I feel the company has lost a lot of money on having to change them out each time the machine was replaced. The price of the toners has continued to rise since the purchase on 3/25/14, thank goodness for discounts with the supplier I get them through.

The owner of the company is not pleased at all with this purchase. The amount of time to swap out 2 printers and clean the toner from it was down time for the office staff. We tried to go through the extended warranty program that was purchased but they could not do anything for me until the manufactured warranty is over. So I am stuck with this machine. We can safely say this company will never buy another Brother printer again.

Being older but still actively working for ourselves this compact all in one printer with a small footprint is just what we were looking for in our home offices. Envelopes and labels are not its strong suit but we don't need that. Happy with the support and with the printer!!
